BVLGARI HIGH PERFUMERY: A DARING ADVENTURE
1. BVLGARI ALLEGRA
Celebrated for upending the rules of jewellery design, the Italian Maison brings its ground breaking vision to a new, personalized fragrance experience, BVLGARI ALLEGRA. The collection unites the colourful, superlative emotions of the Italian lifestyle and the one-of-a-kind glamour of Italian women in an innovative journey. Consisting of five exhilarating fragrances and five MAGNIFYING essences, BVLGARI ALLEGRA invites you to experience the Roman passion for life first-hand by styling a personal scent, a statement fragrance as unique and bold as BVLGARI itself.
THE CORE COLLECTION
BVLGARI ALLEGRA Riva Solare is a sparkling citrus floral scent releasing the invigorating sensuality of the sun-soaked Italian Riviera and the Mediterranean Sea.
BVLGARI ALLEGRA Dolce Estasi is a powdery floral fragrance evoking sweet childhood memories of Italian pastries.
BVLGARI ALLEGRA Rock’ N ’Rome is an ambery floral fragrance that taps the vibrancy of sunset cocktails in The Eternal City.

MAGNIFYING
True to the larger-than-life spirit of Bvlgari, the Maison unveils an industry first: Exclusive essences to create your personalized signature. Named MAGNIFYING, the essences blend seamlessly with any of the collection’s eaux de parfum. Master Perfumer Jacques Cavallier refined raw materials exclusive to BVLGARI, genuine gems of nature, and all of the essences—Magnifying Musk, Magnifying Bergamot, Magnifying Rose, Magnifying Vanilla and Magnifying Patchouli—stand out for containing rich concentrations of precious materials distilled from the best harvests.
This year, the Italian olfactive journey continues with three new BVLGARI ALLEGRA creations:
– BVLGARI ALLEGRA SPETTACOLORE eau de parfum,
– BVLGARI ALLEGRA BACIAMI eau de parfum,
– BVLGARI ALLEGRA MAGNIFYING MYRRH ESSENCE.
Celebrating Italy’s Festival of Lights, SPETTACOLORE expresses the night’s vibe through a chiaroscuro composition, a rare scent that contrasts light against darkness. Iris shines brightly on a backdrop of dusky myrrh, glimmering with the enchantment of the festive evening.
BACIAMI bottles the pulse-racing passion of Italy, a wellspring of iconic love affairs. With a name that means “kiss me!” in Italian, the ambery floral fragrance exalts seduction in an addictive blend of vanilla and gardenia.
MAGNIFYING MYRRH ESSENCE is a sumptuous white amber veil that harmonizes with any of the ALLEGRA collection’s eaux de parfum, enhancing their mystery and allure.
2. BVLGARI LE GEMME
A master of colored gemstones, BVLGARI infuses its savoir faire into an unrivaled high perfumery collection LE GEMME. Expertly chiseled like any BVLGARI creation, LE GEMME fragrances originate on the BVLGARI Gems Road. Taking a unique, inspirational journey from West to East, BVLGARI reveals the secret connections between stunning gemstones and precious fragrance ingredients. These exceptional raw materials, BVLGARI’s gems of nature, then come together in genderless, brilliant fragrances crafted by the world’s most prestigious master perfumers.
The adventurous story of LE GEMME also gives form to its flacon, a pillar-like bottle representing a Roman obelisk. Once used to guide merchants on their way to the Eternal City, the obelisk symbolizes the glorious history and affluence of Rome. The flacons, sleek sheaths of strength, are decorated with gold-toned bands, imbuing the design with the glamour of BVLGARI.
On top of each flacon sits a rich reproduction of the gemstone—from garnet to tiger’s eye—that inspired the scent within the bottle. These beloved stones have adorned both men and women for thousands of years, and their tributary LE GEMME eaux de parfum are equally designed to be enjoyed by all BVLGARI connoisseurs in a gender-free approach to fragrance.
